HDFC ERGO has always been one of the pioneers of innovative health indemnity products. Supported by a strong and durable financial and technological platform, launched the my: Optima Secure policy to provide multiple benefits to the customers, including discounts for existing HDFC ERGO policyholders. Among the wide-ranging benefits, one of the key highlights of HDFC ERGO Optima Secure Plan is the 4X coverage feature. We will explain this particular feature in this blog.

What is 4X cover in HDFC ERGO Optima Secure Health Insurance plan

  • 1X – Select your health insurance cover: As per your budget and requirements, you select a particular coverage you want.

  • 2X – Secure Benefit: Instantly, your base cover gets doubled upon purchase, without having the need to claim it. This benefit will instantly increase your base, say Rs X, to Rs 2X, at no extra cost.

  • 3X – Plus Benefit: On 1st renewal, your base cover increases by 50% after 1 year and 100% after 2 years. So, your total cover now becomes 3X of your base cover after 2 years.

  • 4X –Restore Benefit: Anytime you make a claim whether partial or complete, your base cover gets 100% restored for any subsequent claims in the same year^. Hence, you now have 4X of your base cover.

To explain it further, let us take the example of Mr Sharma. The Sharmas are a family of four –Mr and Mrs Sharma and their two daughters. Mr Sharma thought that HDFC ERGO my:Optima Secure policy is the best insurance plan for his family. So, he decides to insure a sum of ₹10 lacs. Hence, this is how Mr Sharma will get 4X coverage on his plan:

  • Now, Mr Sharma’s sum insured will instantly get doubled and he will get a total health cover of ₹20 lacs, without any additional cost. This additional amount can be utilised for any number of admissible claims.

  • When Mr Sharma renews his Optima Secure Health Insurance Plan for the first year, Plus Benefit increases his base cover of ₹10 lacs by 50% and in the second year by 100%, making it ₹15 lacs and ₹20 lacs respectively. Plus benefit and secure benefit together takes the total coverage to ₹30 lacs.

  • For some reason, suppose, Mr Sharma claims partial or total ₹10 lacs base cover, it gets 100% restored, making it ₹30 + ₹10= ₹40 lacs. So, he will get additional ₹10 lacs as a restore benefit ^to settle claims.

And, in this way, Mr Sharma ensures that his family gets 4X coverage on their health insurance plan.
